Story
Meet Herbert, a playful and loyal 5.5 year old Red Miniture Pincher. We adopted Herbert near the end of August 2025 from Orange County Animal Care Shelter and fell in love with him at first sight. We knew he would be a great addition to our family and other small dog (chihuahua/dachshund mix) and he has been nothing but great with her, they quickly became fast friends. We have two children, a 2.5 year old and a 6 month old baby, and as much patience as Herbert has, our toddler just terrorizes him and is too rough with him. Herbert has nipped at her a few times because of our toddler chasing and provoking him to retaliate. With that said, again he is an amazing and loyal pup plus super friendly, but we don’t believe young children to be a suitable fit for Herbert. He does really well with the 6 month old baby and is a great watchdog for her and her sister, but the wild and craziness that toddlers can bring we believe can overstimulate Herbert and cause issues. Older children OK!

I'm known around here for my mellow personality and my deep, understanding eyes. I'm a loyal friend who will always be there for you. My favorite thing in the world is to curl up next to someone who loves me, feeling their warmth and sharing mine. I'm a sweet, friendly soul, always ready to give and receive love. I'm just a dog who loves deeply and asks for little in return. Adopting me means gaining a loyal, gentle companion who will enrich your life with unconditional love and endless cuddles.

Story
Eve, Female, 7 years old, black and tan, Manchester and Min pin mix, Shelter Survivor. Eve busted out of jail (the shelter) and is now looking for her forever home! She starts off skittish and scared but will warm up and play...especially with other dogs (she is shown in photo #3 with her buddy "Manny". She is crate and potty trained as well! Eve will require someone that has an enormous amount of patience... it takes a long time for her to come over for petting. She won't bite, but she is just afraid of people. She LOVE LOVE LOVES dogs. We have not cat tested Eve, however, we have seen her around a very small fluffy chihuahua and she seemed a little too interested in wanting to chase her. We do think she has prey drive and we think she may chase cats and bunnies. To be clear... Eve is she is great with dogs but very shy/scared of new people. She takes a while to warm up to you for you to touch her. She doesn’t bite. She is actually very sweet once she trusts you. However, if she does get scared she will try to “run” so you have to be aware that her response to fear is to run. She needs a secure house and yard for this reason. She is still a work in progress and will need a dedicated and experienced dog person to give her the chance she deserves. She is sweet, beautiful and an all around pleasant girl. Eve's ideal home is one with patient, predictable, calm humans and a secure YARD. Perhaps a good doggie to mirror and learn the ropes at your home. If you are interested in Eve, Please fill out OUR adoption application, we do not accept Adopt-a-Pet applications. Our application is located on our website www.k9spirit.org
